The beach is now her therapy. She told me "they don't think I have much longer". That as a busy mom with tons going on every day, she never took time for just herself, lost her identity. "Fuck it"... she's heading to the beach whenever she feels like it now. #photography #me-time #sunrise

Color photograph of a woman in ocean waters doing yoga poses (arms up, hands together) at sunrise, with a few clouds over the distant horizon.

The ocean all to himself #photography #ocean #boy #minimalist #seascape Nikon Zf 135mm at f2 1/2000 sec.

Color photograph of a boy in the distance striding though the ocean waters near the shore. Lighting is flat due to being pre-sunrise, with water and horizon displaying similar near-monochome tones.

Yesterday at the beach, two boys were using nets in the shore to scoop minnows for fishing. This attracted lots of seagulls, giving me many chances to practice some slow shutter shots of the gulls. Nikon Zf 135mm lens at f16 1/15th sec. w/panning #photography #ocean #seagull #ICM #motionblur

A color photograph of a seagull in flight against an ocean/horizon scene, taken with a slow shutter speed while panning the camera, creating a blurred effect.

Early morning basking It looked to me that this seagull was just really loving the morning. Nikon Zf Viltrox 135mm at f8 1/1000 sec. #photography #seagull #sunrise #ocean #seascape

This morning's look at a pelican in flight. Nikon Zf 135mm at f2.5 1/000 sec. #photography #pelican #bird #nature #ocean #flight

Silhouette of a pelican in flight against a layered sky of deep blue-gray clouds, with a thin band of warm golden light near the horizon. The bird's wings are angled sharply as it descends, feet dangling below its body.

Summer morning daze #photography #out-of-focus #sunrise

An out of focus color photograph of a sunrise over the ocean, showing a very blurred out early morning sun, a soft looking horizon, and a golden reflection over the ocean waters.

Early morning waves Nikon Zf 135mm at f16 1/15th sec shutter ISO 100 #photography #blackandwhite #waves #ocean #ICM

Black and white photo of ocean waves rolling in before sunrise at Lake Worth Municipal Beach, FL. Intentional camera blur at a slow shutter speed streaks the water and sky, with foamy wave crests breaking in the foreground and rows of swells fading into a hazy horizon.

After working out the park till a little later than I usually do, I noticed the park field lights competing for attention with the leftover light from a fading sunset. #photography #sunset #parklights #twilight

Color photograph of an after sunset scene at a park with small field lights shining below a sky of shades of blue and shades of orange.

Driving along coastal A1A in Palm Beach at sunrise, out the corner of my eye I notice 4 absolutely massive seagulls cruising majestically over the Atlantic, so I quickly shoot no-look frames, eyes on the road... Oops, just some boring old road construction. 😉 #sunrise #streetphotography #seagulls

They were hopeful for a better one. #photography #family #sunrise #ocean

Color photograph of a group of 5 people from the back, silhouetted by an early sunrise and the reflective water of the ocean.

I kind of enjoy the thought that the line workers had no better way to handle the extra wire than to store it in the sky, like a tapestry of sorts. But really, it looks like a work in progress, so I'll check on it at a later date. 😉 #photography #blackandwhite #streetphotography #urbandecor

A photograph from yesterday at the park. #photography #ICM

Color photo (where intentional camera movement during a longish exposure was used) of a wooden dock or boardwalk leading to a railed lookout over water. Vertical motion blur streaks the greenery overhead and along both sides, while dark shadow stripes cross the light-colored deck boards. A white wall or fence is visible on the right side.

Standup before sunrise. #color #photography #standup #ocean #sunrise

Color photograph of two distant standup paddle boarders pre-sunrise on a mostly calm ocean.

Eddie @ilovephotography.com · 2w ago

This one from a couple days ago was originally very overexposed (while testing my new 85mm into the sun). And when I darkened it in post, it started acquiring some artifacts, but I'm still okay with it, although not for everyone. #color #photography #sunrise #overexposure #ocean

An overexposed color image of a gold-tinted sunrise over a somewhat calm ocean, showing the first signs of image artifacts due to being darkened in post processing.

Pre-sunrise yesterday morning. #color #photography #ocean #sunrise #ICM #motionblur

Blurred color photograph of the Atlantic Ocean before sunrise, sky gradient of blue, teal, and amber fading to dark near the horizon, reflected in soft horizontal streaks across calm water. ICM.

Portrait of J I walked into my favorite cafe this morning and just knew I wanted a portrait of this beautiful woman sitting at a cozy lamp working her laptop. After getting my almond latte, I sat down nearby. I wanted a candid, but asked her first so as not to bother her - J gave a gracious yes. 📷

Color photograph: A woman with glasses and her hair in a bun sits at a rustic wooden table in a coffee shop, typing on a laptop. A cappuccino, a smartphone, and a glowing lamp sit nearby, with a decorative burlap coffee sack hanging on the wall behind her.

Separate ways #color #photography #sunrise #seagull #loneman

Color photograph: A lone figure stands on a wooden pier at sunrise, silhouetted against a warm golden sky. A seagull soars overhead as the sun breaks through low clouds on the horizon.

This was just an experiment from the other day in panning with a slow shutter speed. This beach has an oceanfront casino with walls painted with colorful murals. Lots of early morning bikers ride through. Nikon Zf, 135mm lens, at 1/15 sec. #color #photography #ICM #motionblur #bike #bikerider

Color photograph: A cyclist wearing a pink jersey and white helmet rides past a turquoise and green mural at a beach casino. Motion blur from panning camera movement renders the rider and bicycle as streaks of color against the background.

For this shot of sea grape leaves, which I came upon on a beach side walkway, a little extra contrast emphasized the color, which is my favorite thing about these leaves, along with the cute roundish shape. #color #photography #nature #seagrape #leaves

A densely layered sea grape shrub photographed in high-contrast sunlight at a Florida beach. The large, round leaves display a vivid deep purple, magenta, red, orange, and green, with bright yellow-green veins tracing across each surface. Fallen dried leaves and rocky ground are visible below. The strong sunlight creates blown-out white highlights on several leaves, intensifying the effect.

These are just 4 extras from today's outing. I like them, but not enough to post them each separately. 😬😉 #photography #outtakes #streetphotography #rearcamera

Image 2 — A car's dashboard backup camera display shows a sun-washed street scene with palm trees and a cyclist, all bathed in a greenish tint. Green and red guide lines fan out across the road. The wide-angle lens and glare give the image a slightly distorted feel, as if the real world is being filtered through a machine's eye.

Image 4 — A close-up of what apears to be a wavy or textured glass panel outdoors, catching the reflections of nearby trees in soft greens and yellows. A metal bike rack sits in the lower left, sharp and real against the shifting colors behind the glass. The image plays with what is solid and what is just a reflection.

Today at the beach, I was mainly looking for design, geometry, pattern... so I liked the walkway here. Seeing this father/son out for a Father's Day fish was a nice bonus. #photography #color #fishing #pier #father-son #american $flags #fathersday #pattern

Color photograph: Two American flags fly from the railing of a wooden fishing pier on Father's Day, the ocean stretching out behind them. Their bold red and white stripes echo the repeating lines of the wooden boards and fence rails all around them. Bright sunlight throws long, crisscrossing shadows across the worn deck, turning the walkway into a pattern of light and dark. A man and a child head away from the camera toward the far end of the pier, carrying fishing rods, while other fishermen can be seen gathered in the distance under a covered shelter.

I noticed this iguana at the beach. And I was thinking that that plant is way too spiky for me, but almost sure he doesn't mind at all. The white background is just from the scene being heavily backlit, hence blown out. #photography #color #iguana #screwpine #spiky

Color photograph: A green iguana perches near the top of a spiky palm plant, partially camouflaged among the sharp, narrow leaves. The iguana's head and upper body are visible on the right side, with its distinctive teal eye and scaly gray-green skin contrasting against the bright green foliage. The background is white from heavy backlight.

One last silhouette from the other morning at the beach. #photography #color #silhouette #pensive #reflection #sunrise

Color photograph of a person in a tank top and shorts, seen in near-silhouette against backlit rippling water. Massive dark pier pilings frame the scene vertically, with a starburst of sunlight flaring between two of them on the left. The figure looks downward, head bowed, surrounded by reflections.

#blackandwhite #photography #ocean #standup #silhouette #streetphotography #sunrise #existential #man

Black and white photograph of a lone stand-up paddleboarder silhouetted against a brightly backlit ocean surface, paddle in hand, standing amid low breaking waves. The backlit water stretches in rippling bands of light and shadow from foreground to horizon, with a dark overcast sky above.
